''The Life, Times, and Labors of Robert Owen'' is a two-volume biography written by Lloyd Jones and published in 1890. The book chronicles the life of Robert Owen, a Welsh social reformer and industrialist who lived from 1771 to 1858. Volume 1 covers Owen’s early life and career, including his success as a textile manufacturer and his advocacy for workers’ rights. It also explores his involvement in the cooperative movement and his attempts to establish utopian communities in both the United States and the United Kingdom. Volume 2 delves deeper into Owen’s later years, including his involvement in the Chartist movement and his continued efforts to promote social and economic reform. It also covers his personal life, including his family and relationships with other notable figures of the time. Throughout the book, Jones provides detailed analysis and commentary on Owen’s ideas and actions, as well as the broader social and political context in which he lived. The biography is a comprehensive and engaging account of one of the most important social reformers of the 19th century, and remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of labor, industry, and social justice.Two Volumes In One.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
